     Similar to `lapply` in native R, `spark.lapply` runs a function over a 
list of elements and distributes the computations with Spark. `spark.lapply` 
works in a manner that is similar to `doParallel` or `lapply` to elements of a 
list. The results of all the computations should fit in a single machine. If 
that is not the case you can do something like `df <- createDataFrame(list)` 
and then use `dapply`.
     
    +We use `svm` in package `e1071` as an example. We use all default settings 
except for varying costs of constraints violation. `spark.lapply` can train 
those different models in parallel.

     ```{r}
    -families <- c("gaussian", "poisson")
    -train <- function(family) {
    -  model <- glm(mpg ~ hp, mtcars, family = family)
    +costs <- exp(seq(from = log(1), to = log(1000), length.out = 5))

    It runs as long as `e1071` is installed in the workers. Perhaps it's better 
to add a check there?
